Lochie_old Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 This is the only example of the sort of jacket I am trying to find via. eBay or stores near me, it is the sh*t. I don't know what the jacket is called, and I have been straining myself for hours trying to get a name of that style of jacket. All I ask is that if anyone knows what the jacket is called, please leave a reply here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryuclan Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 lol The jacket isn't even that special. Looks like a regular windbreaker (lol) just little on the short side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Pink Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 My friend has one. Not sure if there's a name for them. Keep an eye out for one in the shops. You're bound to come across one. MOVING LIKE BERNIE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star-Lord Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 These are actually called 'Bomber' Jackets, But the one in the vid is really warned out big times. When new they are sort of fluffy but after washing them alot and not giving them hanger they'll look like the one on vid. I have only one but it is all in suede only weared it twice it's made by Croft&Barrow cost around $150.00 a couple years ago. It's a nice jacket to go out with a hot chick and get your groove on somewhere classy though. If you buy it flat then you'll get ripped off! their's alot of cheap knockoffs out there. As where to find them go to Suit stores or places like JC Penny mens dept. Even though they are kind of causual wear they have them there with their suits.

Slamman Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 (edited) Aren't Bomber jackets styled after the WW2 fighter pilots gear? I buy "Motorcycle" jackets, the leather that falls into several catagories, however, I am against fringes and a lot of fancy layers. I bought Open Road and Wilsons, of Wilson Leather fame. I had one stolen in 1988 that had zip in rabbit fur lining... as well as two others, one with a zip in Thinsulate lining, or something, not nearly as warm as rabbit fur, so highly recommend finding one like that. One is super-tattered, even the leather side....mostly the case. The last one was via eBay and has holes in EVERY damn pocket, the lining is no match for a sewing needle, as it was attempted to sew them up, but the leather is in great shape, so it remains my main jacket. Real shame about the pockets, as I lost keys and more thanks to that! Just a bit O FYI, not directly related to OP Edited August 17, 2008 by Slamman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slamman Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 I know the material can vary, but in some ways, leather jackets of a particular type, or the parkas that Niko wears don't vary so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
